VeChain Partners with 4ocean to Advance Ocean and Land Sustainability with Blockchain
With 440 million pounds of plastic waste entering the world’s oceans annually, plastic waste has emerged as one of the most urgent global environmental concerns of the twenty-first century. In order to address this problem, VeChain has teamed up with 4ocean, an organization dedicated to the removal of plastic waste from oceans and coastlines. To date, 40 million pounds of ocean trash have been removed by 4ocean.
The partnership was officially launched in a beach cleanup in Miami that was also attended by the UFC Foundation, the philanthropic arm of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). The cleanup was utilized as a showcase for Cleanify dApp, a decentralized application that operates on the VeBetter ecosystem and VeChain’s blockchain network.
Through this collaboration, all the trash collected from oceans, rivers, and coastlines will be tracked and verified on the blockchain with assured accurate records of environmental impact. Tokenized “Sustainability Proofs” will also be stored on-chain, providing immutable data to verify cleanup activities.
VeBetter will reward individuals and communities with B3TR tokens, creating a blockchain-facilitated incentive for sustainability action and also encouraging participation. With transparent and tamper-proof documentation, this platform also precludes greenwashing, cultivating greater stakeholder trust and ensuring real environmental progress.
“This partnership is a perfect match of mission and tech. By combining 4cean’s remarkable track record of ocean conservation with the blockchain technology of VeChain, we’re creating new opportunities for people to engage with and verify the impact of some of the world’s largest environmental cleanup efforts,” commented Sunny Lu, CEO and Founder of VeChain. 4ocean has carried out cleanup operations in a variety of countries across different continents, from the United States to the Caribbean, Asia, Africa, and Europe.
As the announcement explains , VeChain and 4ocean will start a series of sustainability initiatives in 2025. To significantly contribute towards environmental rebirth, the duo will focus on removing 300,000 pounds of plastic and waste from rivers, beaches, and oceans. They will run an 11-month sustainability sweepstakes from February to December with prizes to promote participation globally in order to encourage community involvement. On top of this, the partnership will also include limited-edition 4ocean x VeChain merchandise, the proceeds of which will go directly towards ocean cleanup projects.
“When purpose is the motivation for action, meaningful change is achieved. In our partnership with VeChain, we’re removing 300,000 pounds of plastic from the ocean, which is equivalent to 14.4 million plastic water bottles. We’re committed to exploring blockchain technology to assist in our tracking and verification processes, enabling even greater transparency into our cleanup initiatives,” said Alex Schulze, CEO and Co-founder of 4ocean.
Currently, VET’s token has increased its value by 8.14% in the last 24 hours to trade at $0.02189 while its trading volume has also increased by 32.27% to $76.31million.

DeXe (DEXE) Leads Altcoins in Whale Transaction Growth (+340%): Santiment
DeXe Protocol (DEXE) captured significant attention recently due to a reported surge in large whale transactions associated with its token. According to data from analytics platform Santiment, DeXe led crypto charts with a 340% increase in whale transactions (defined as those exceeding $100,000 in value) over the past week..
This marked rise in large transaction activity placed DeXe ahead of other notable cryptocurrencies measured by Santiment for this metric during that period, including Nexo (NEXO), OKB (OKB), Maker (MKR), and Gala (GALA
A major apparent catalyst for DeXe’s growing on-chain traction is the recent launch of governance staking features within its newly upgraded DeXe decentralized application (dApp).
The protocol announced on March 31st that over $300 million worth of DEXE had already been staked through this new system. This mechanism allows users to earn staking rewards while maintaining full voting power in the protocol’s governance.

The governance staking model also offers eight flexible staking tiers available across both the Ethereum and BNB Chain networks. It provides high Annual Percentage Rates (APRs) that vary depending on the user’s chosen staking duration, aiming to incentivize long-term holding.
Additionally, on March 25th, the DeXe project had announced the launch of a $5 million community subDAO initiative. This provides an opportunity for DEXE token holders and community members to actively participate in shaping the future direction and development priorities of the protocol through dedicated funding.
The initiative is particularly significant given that DeXe holds a $1.2 billion treasury, making it one of the largest DAOs in the crypto space.
Also last week, the protocol debuted its upgraded DeXe dApp platform . This new application, built by the DeXeDAOStudio team, is positioned by the project not merely as a routine update but as a foundational layer for building future “programmable economies.”
Despite these apparently positive fundamental and on-chain developments, DEXE’s market price currently trades near $14.90. This marks a sharp 18% drop over the past 24 hours, according to CoinMarketCap data, reflecting broader market weakness or perhaps profit-taking.
The token faces strong immediate resistance overhead at its 20-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA), located near $17.25.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI), a momentum indicator, currently reads near 46.29. This level suggests momentum is currently neutral-to-bearish overall. However, the recent gradient of the RSI line indicates a sharp bounce away from previously oversold levels (below 30).
This could suggest increasing underlying buyer demand emerging at these lower price points despite the recent pullback.

PARTICLE NETWORK (PARTI) ROADMAP
🌏Universal accounts connect developers and users from across all the chains and
develop a reliable ecosystem. 🔮
This process will be divided into three phases:
⏳️Permissioned Ecosystem (Q1, 25):
Enabling on chain trading with combined balances from every chain. In the future, and to continue fostering its ecosystem, Particle will launch two more chain-abstracted applications covering foundational use cases.
⏳️Collaborative Ecosystem (Q3, 25): In this phase, the Network will collaborate with key ecosystem partners to leverage Universal Accounts—within both existing and new applications—in crucial verticals such as AI, trading, and stablecoins.
⏳️Permissionless Ecosystem (Q1, 26): In this phase, any ecosystem actor can permissionlessly integrate Universal Accounts. Public chains will be able to deploy UAs into their ecosystem to connect to Particle Network. Similarly, any application developer will be able to integrate them into their dApp—enabling their users to enjoy the best experience across any application and public chain.
